    Well it wasn't a "no we can't pull that off at that size" so he could be teasing us. Their reformatted line is normally a bit bigger than voyager depending on the character though so it will be interesting to see if it's that size with those hands or MP scale.

    In PSX's announcement on Weibo there was a comment making some suggestions.

    Wow. This... doesn't look good at all. I'm surprised how much love this is getting with that ridiculous backpack.

    Now, maybe it's just the angle. And sure, the articulation is impressive. But with a lazy backpack like that, it better be substantially cheaper than their other offerings.

    MMC hasn't impressed me with a design in a while, and this isn't changing that. Hopefully he can deliver for all the people in this thread who feel differently.

    Looks very impressive and will look great with Tyrantron, but I feel like the placement of the wheels is an important part of the design that this doesn't pull off. Unless there's a way to slide the wheels to wrap around the butterfly, somehow.

    This actually looks good to me, but... I was really hoping MMC would give us a decent voyager-ish scaled version of the "modern" era IDW Optimus (the one Ultra Maxmus and Op EX were based on). I realize the Stormbringer design hasn't gotten much love (one Iron Factory figure, I think), but I've honestly never cared much for it. Maybe if I'm lucky there's retool plans for the future.

    Is this sarcasm or serious? Have you never seen the Stormbringer Prime design before?

    I’m interested. My reformatted crew is small and I wasn’t planning on adding more, but this looks pretty good so far and I’ve been very happy with the few figures I have.

    This looks great, and since it’s MMC I can be confident of the quality.

    Wow, what a great first image to show off a figure. I wasn’t really interested in a Stormbringer Prime but the posing just looks so good here.
